Annexation#2
Determination of Assessment and Levy Amounts
The landscape improvements maintained under this.annexation will be installed per the conditions of
approval for Tract 17766. Because these landscape improvements are intended to be an "entry
statement" for the entire tract, they will provide specific and special benefit to each lot within the
tract, equally.
Therefore, the maximum annual assessment to each lot is established and based on the Regular
Annual Maintenance Costs along with the Annualized Capital Reserve Costs per Exhibit"C" divided
by the number of lots within the tract. For the first several years, it is anticipated that the cost to
maintain the assessment district will.be limited to the Regular Maintenance. However, as costs_rise
due to major. repairs and replacement, not covered by regular maintenance, the Capital Reserve
portion of the Maximum Annual Assessment will be utilized. The annual assessment will never
exceed the Maximum Annual Assessment, including the annual escalation factor without.a vote by
ballot by the property owners.

Total Regular Annual Maintenance, Servicing and Incidental Costs: $4,568.
